Apple is all set to launch the iPhone 17 Pro series tomorrow, September 9, at 10:30 PM IST. The event will reveal the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max, which are expected to bring some of the biggest upgrades in years.
From a fresh design and stronger performance to better cameras and bigger batteries, the new Pro models are shaping up to be Apple’s biggest step forward.
Apple may remove the titanium body this year. Instead, the iPhone 17 Pro could have a mix of aluminium and glass on the back. The camera setup is also getting a new style. Instead of the usual square, leaks say Apple may use a rounded rectangle camera bar with three cameras. The iPhone 17 Pro Max might also be a little thicker at 8.7mm.

Apple is expected to add new anti-reflective glass to the display. This will make the screen tougher against scratches and give clearer viewing than the older Ceramic Shield.
The potent new A19 Pro chip, which is based on TSMC's cutting-edge 3nm technology, might power the iPhone 17 Pro. Both speed and battery efficiency will increase as a result. Along with this, the Pro models may come with 12GB RAM, making them smoother for multitasking.
Apple might bring a vapour chamber cooling system to the iPhone 17 Pro. This will keep the phone cooler when playing heavy games or recording long 3D or ProRes videos. Users will be able to push the phone harder without performance issues.

The telephoto camera could upgrade from 12MP to 48MP, with up to 8x zoom. The selfie camera may also jump to 24MP. These changes will make the iPhone 17 Pro much stronger for photos and videos.
The iPhone 17 Pro may record in 8K for the first time. Additionally, Apple might include a dual video mode that would allow users to simultaneously record from the front and rear cameras. This would be a fantastic tool for producers and vloggers.
The iPhone 17 Pro Max may get a large 5000mAh battery. On top of that, Apple could add new software features to stretch battery life even further.
